|---|---|---|---|---|
|Rth(j-c)|Junction to case|Per diode|2|°C/W|
|||Per device|1.15||
|Rth(c)|Coupling||0.3|°C/W|



When the diodes 1 and 2 are used simultaneously: 

ΔTj(diode1) = P(diode1) x Rth(j-c) (per diode) + P(diode2) x Rth(c)

## **Notes:** 

(1)Pulse test: tp = 5 ms, δ < 2% 

(2)Pulse test: tp = 380 µs, δ < 2% 

To evaluate the conduction losses, use the following equation: 

P = 0.83 x IF(AV) + 0.034 x IF[2] (RMS)
